SOURCE: changing the spark plugs on 2003 altima 2.5L

Not that simple on newer cars, but you do still need those tools.

Here is a good write-up: Changing Plugs on an Altima that will show you the location of the coil packs that must be removed first (9th picture from the bottom) and what they look like.

Doesn't really need to be done until about the 100,000 mile mark. Do not do it while the engine is hot or even warm. Replace with the factory recommended spark plug. Place a little anti-seize on the threads and some dielectric grease on the top. Be sure you torque them down to the proper setting. I believe it is somewhere around 20 ft. lbs., but if you call the Nissan service desk they should be able to tell you for sure.

First of all, you'll have to clarify which belt it is you're talking about. Is it a SERPENTINE drive belt or a Timing belt? Two totally different belts.
If its a timing belt, you're in luck as Nissan Altimas have timing chains on the engines which shouldn't need replacing for at the very least 100,000 miles. If you're talking about the serpentine drive belt on the other hand, there's really only one way it can go over the pulleys. One side of the belt it grooved, and one side is smooth. There's only one way it can go over all of the pulleys while having the grooved face sitting on grooved pulley surfaces,... should be really easy to figure out.

SOURCE: engine is misfiring. 2.5L 2003

one of the small screws that secure the plates to the shaft of the swirl control system inside of intake manifold mostlikely fell out and wound up in the cylinder of the damged plug causing the damage to the plug.there was a recall by nissan to remedy this by replacing screw with threadlocker.contact your local dealer for info.

SOURCE: 2003 Nissan altima alternator

The alternator is right on top of the 2.5L motor and held on by 2 14mm bolts. To remove the lower bolt (hard to reach), you must remove the coolant bottle and the IPDM fuse board and its metal box/bracket. A breaker bar really helped give enough torque to loosen the bolts. Approach the drive belt from under the front passenger tire. There is a tension adjuster (hard to reach) bolt that loosens the belt and allows you to remove it from the alternator.

My suzuki grand vitara automatic exit has refused to start. The nozzles are injecting the petrol but the coils are not igniting .the coils aren't faulty. What other item could be faulty.

Check the fuse for the coil. Look at this website for more information. Try new spark plugs. *Be Careful*. Only change One Spark Plug at a time.

My Renault won't start there is power to the coil and spark plug's

How you checked the power on the spark plugs and the coil ? Have you see the sparks by yourself when removing the spark plug cable, together with a noise like small clapping, and also the engine is rotating by electromotor ?
If YES, then gasoline is not present. Maybe carburetor is clogged/membrane damaged/nozzle clogged.

Fault code p0304

P0304 indicates you have a misfire on cylinder #4 which is located on the passenger side in between #2and #6. (middle spark plug) Inspect the spark plug and the wire, if both are good. There may be a good chance that the fuel injector poppet nozzle is dirty with carbon and will need to be cleaned with a fuel injector poppet nozzle cleaner.

Thank you for using Fixya and keep us posted.

Fuel problem

first i would cover the basics. change the fuel filter, next change the spark plugs, careful this car takes special spark plugs. probably have to get from toyota. next clean the throttle body, pull air nozzle off and open the butterfly so you can spray throttle body cleaner in their and clean with toothbrush. also dont be alarmed after cleaning the throttle body and changing the fuel filter it will be hard starting, hold the gas pedal half way.
